Multi-Hop Cooperative Relaying With Energy Harvesting From Cochannel Interferences.

A novel multi-hop cooperative relaying transmission is proposed, where neither the source nor the relays have constant power supplies but rather scavenge energy from cochannel interferences (CCIs) and then use it for subsequent data transmission. The results show that, larger CCIs, usually detrimental to system performance, offer higher transmit power to each node and benefit improving system perf...
